I love this story, I feel as if this could have fit in the actual Zelda continuity. I also like how it ended, happy endings for all, mostly. I also liked all the reveals and how the characters were used in the story. I also like your writing style, you captured a lot of teenager humor that anyone would have used in those situations to defuse the terror. I like Link's characterization the most, he seems like he has grown the most out of all of them and his past seems to be the most fleshed out through the story. I also adore Dark, I always envisioned the shadow Link as being an eternal presence over him but I like him as he is. This is a series you could really flesh out some more.

I think that a series like this could use more detail though, rushing through some of the fight scenes builds tension but I think it would help immersion if you added more detail on the scenes. Nothing too big just some little things like subtle gestures and such.

This was a surprising mix of hilarious and awesome. I haven't found many people on this site who can do both in one story, so congrats. I loved Dark, and am SO glad you didn't actually kill him. Link, however, might. He seems the kind of guy you like in SMALL DOSES, or else you'd strangle him.

It's been like 100 years since I read this the first time and I'm so happy to know I still love it. The way you write people and their connections to each other is beautiful and compelling and a lot of other works that mean "f'ing baller". I love this fic so much and even though I'm not really in the fandom proper, this fic is still so great to read.

First, they're goddesses not gods. Second, Link is the reincarnation of the Chosen Hero of the Goddess (Hylia/Zelda). He has the same soul and is completely the same person. The only difference is that he was born more than once. He doesn't remember, though, but I think that makes sense because even if memories imprint from the mind onto the soul, his mind is starting all over again and the imprinting might be one-way.

I wonder if souls are like that in real life. I mean, maybe a soul grows and develops over time as the mind grows stronger.

Both Link and Zelda strike me as people who wouldn't sleep with someone they didn't believe to be "the one", if you know what I mean. That, and Link wouldn't sleep around while he has such a hard crush on someone. Zelda would be watched like a hawk in the first place and due to constantly being singled-out and every little thing she does or says getting reported to the press, she'd be very leery of risking something like that getting out from someone who wanted to brag or just mentioned it to a trusted friend who then rats them out.

In this case, Link is with his crush, so duh, and Zelda is the guy's trusted friend (lol), so she isn't worried about her ratting herself out to the press. As such, the sexual frustration they've had for each other can finally be sated.

Though, it sounds like their friends get laid enough that another friend notices these things. So, hope they're trustworthy.

Axcel chapter 2 . 5/11/2015

I look forward to Link being revealed as The Hero (well, I hope it happens).

Mostly because watching him constantly be harassed for his deeds while being plagued by flashbacks and memories as he slowly becomes The Hero again all while Zelda has an entertaining jealous thing going that she tries to hide from him while it leaks through as Sheik, giving the wrong impression to everyone and causing further lulz for our cruel pleasure.

Then comes when it is revealed that Zelda is The Princess/Hylia and all that goes with that and everyone knowing the legendary relationship (heavily distorted by time) between her and Link, resulting in everyone believing there is some twisted love triangle between Link, Zelda, and Sheik. Then Sheik is revealed to be Zelda, quadrupling the fun. Then Ganondorf returns, sits back, and enjoys the show while it lasts instead of immediately smashing stuff.

Ah, Sister Golden Hair. Such a bittersweet song of my childhood. Glad to know it hasn't completely faded into obscurity with my younger generation.

If I walked In on that I think I would take five seconds to realize what song It was and then start singing along. Dead serious I love that song. You can sing It whenever your halfway there.

Excellent story! There should be more like this, good fics based on a new incarnations of the heroes. You did a great job with all the characters, and it was interesting seeing Link and Zelda in modern times. The Zelda/Sheik stuff in particular was just fantastic, I enjoyed it a lot. And Vaati at the end there, what a twist.
